Thanks for the reply ! It's sad to know that but it's not a big deal just more time to play with unlocking, flashing kernel with recovery and then flashing updates. I think I'm going to stick with this software it's really good, faster and smoother than LP and the ringtone volume is high enough.
[Xperia Z3 General] Zox09:
Interesting, I didn't know about that. What an annoying tweak of settings they did, though. I don't even know why they messed with those settings if they were perfect in Lollipop even in the Concept ROM.

Now I can't even open Telegram and a web link inside G+ (for example) without the first one getting killed.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
The settings are pretty normal, but you can tweak them. Google tweaking MinFree settings.

What is more important is amount of cache vs. memory available for apps. Type "vmstat" in terminal.

Maybe it is just setting in Beta. For some reason.

I have V.232 firmware, can i flash this rom? or first flash to v.264 and then flash MM?

p.s. sorry for my bad English.
[Xperia Z3 General] maple_mak:
You can flash it from any version, but from stock firmware only.
[Xperia Z3 General] wornera:
Thank you, now i'm going to root and flash recovery.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
I highly recommend you to upgrade to v. 264 first as it contains latest baseband and bootloader.
[Xperia Z3 General] wornera:
Thank you! I updated to 264 and then flashed MM.

Only one sim works :( but i have dual menu setting.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:

The ROM doesn't support the Arabic language (All RTL languages in general).

Is there is anyway i can make the rom support this ?
[Xperia Z3 General] a1mLeSs:
How can i install this room? I have stock rom, without root..
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
There are only two ways:

1/ You download Sony Beta app, and if you live in Spain, Italy or Netherlands, you can register and if accepted, you will receive OTA update to install Android M

2/ If you live outside these countries, or you will not get accepted for Beta program, you can only install as written in OP - it means you have to be rooted and have recovery so you can flash either TWRP backup or flashable ZIP file.

There is no other way, no FTF, no magic, no unicorns.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
I think you need to wait for official version as this Beta is intended for European markets, namely Italy, Spain and Netherlands and I believe that for matter of simplicity the RTL languages support is removed. I don't think you can really do anything about it right now...
[Xperia Z3 General] a1mLeSs:
The Sony Beta program is closed..

Where can i find twrp and a flashable ZIP? And how to root?
[Xperia Z3 General] omegastarr:
Why didn't you read the first post ? It's all there ;)

edit: For root there's a separate thread in the Z3 General forum
[Xperia Z3 General] Sherif Abdl-Naby:
Yea, it is pretty reasonable, although i manged to fix it by merging the Arabic font with Roboto on PC and adding them to system/fonts., i fixed it! :D
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
Great!
[Xperia Z3 General] Sherif Abdl-Naby:
Okay, After testing the Beta ROM for a couple of hours...

There is a serious problem in RAM management, the system closes the apps in background very fast, i can't even multitask like i used to anymore.

The minfree settings were normal imo, i can't decide what is the cause of this behavior but in lolipop RAM Management was pretty balanced and perfect.

Can we fix this ourselves or we shall wait for an update from sony's side ?
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
The cache portion is pretty huge if you see vmstat but I can only guess that it is on purpose in Beta. We should see if it behaves the same in final release.
[Xperia Z3 General] SquallPT:
Many thanks :)
[Xperia Z3 General] maple_mak:

TWRP working after flash MM?
[Xperia Z3 General] Sherif Abdl-Naby:
What can we do from our side to fix this RAM management problem? any ideas?
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
Can confirm.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
Not on locked bootloader.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
Couple of things to mention before anybody starts experimenting:

- knowledge of Linux memory management is highly desirable as there is no simple recipe to it

- by default 510 MB of memory is used by ZRAM for swapping purposes

- vm.swappiness is set at 100. Reducing this value will increase rate at which applications can claim memory and reduce filecache

- vm.dirty_ration is at 20 meaning that a process can claim up to 20% of available memory before writes are flushed to disk. Reducing this value reduces filecache usage at cost of performance

- reducing minfree Empty_apps can reduce rate at which idle apps are closed.

All these parameters are configurable by writing into respective files, sysctl or using for example Kernel Adiutor app

This can be flashed over old .232 firmware (LP) or do I need latest .264 to flash it?
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
I highly recommend to do .264 upgrade first as it contains latest bootloader/baseband.
[Xperia Z3 General] shoey63:
Yes, that is good practice, but won't be required soon (for unlocked bootloader) , as I have managed to integrate recovery into the boot.img. Will release it after some more testing.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
But you didn't integrate baseband, did you? :p
[Xperia Z3 General] shoey63:
Not required. Unlike samsung, modem/baseband have no impact on the bootloader in Sony Z >Z3 series.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
No, I think that older baseband may not work in Beta MM. Therefore I would recommend flashing .264 baseband in Flashtool, if not upgrading whole firmware to .264 before flashing Beta MM.
[Xperia Z3 General] NewBieSS:
The baseband you are talking that shows in about phone?
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
Yes...

[Xperia Z3 General] Horgar:
Using rooted beta rom have had the whole system crash twice and had to start by flashing lp all over again. This happened using TB to delete a system app, then reinstalling it (it then doesn't work) and then deleting again. At this point I get loads of pop ups telling me my system apps have stopped working, It looks like I end up deleting my system apps, or some of them at least. Same thing happens using link2sd.

Not sure why but presume it's connected to the different way mm uses sd card and memory.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
You have to delete not only the app but also related odex files (links to squash fs mount). If you delete just app and the replace it with different version, you end up with having odex of different version resulting in art cache being inconsistent and the app of course fc.
[Xperia Z3 General] Horgar:
Thanks for the info. If you have time, and it's relatively simple, could you explain to me where to find related odex files to delete? Are they all in one place, do I delete them all? Sorry but only really used apps to mess about with my system files. No experience of doing it directly myself.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
odex are placed into oat/arm subdirectory in each app directory, so best is delete whole app directory. For example for system app Anonymous Data delete complete /system/app/AnonymousData folder.
[Xperia Z3 General] Horgar:
Thankyou. Instead of using TB to delete a system app I can go into system/app? So for example to delete talkback I go to system/app and delete talkback folder and the whole app is removed ?
[Xperia Z3 General] Sherif Abdl-Naby:
Sony better push an update because after using this ROM for 2 days I decided to return back to Lollipop.

Actually the ROM is pretty slow and clunky, mostly because of this horrible RAM management that isn't allowing me to multi-task at all.

or maybe XDA magicians can help tweak the ROM a bit ?
[Xperia Z3 General] Laercio_lalau:
After formatting Sd Card this option disappears as fix ?

[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
I must repeat myself, but is it possible, that you did a dirty flash? Because I have total over 330 apps installed, including Facebook and so on, all apps updated using Playstore to latest version, not yet debloated (waiting for final version) and so far I have none of the problems you or [MENTION=5694696]Zox09[/MENTION] [MENTION=5153535]maple_mak[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3545225]rogermontane[/MENTION] describing.

I must say that I see the MinFree settings as rather aggressive, but I feel the Beta MM snappy and fast. Not to speak about excellent battery.
[Xperia Z3 General] Sherif Abdl-Naby:
I flashed back to Kitkat via flashtools then to Lollipop(.232) via recovery then to MM Beta via recovery too.

I did factory reset wipe before each installation(data, cache, dalvik cache).

It is said that flashing over a .264 lollipop is recommended but i think it is unrelated since it is something not about baseband, etc.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
Yes, you are right, I am just trying to rule out possible cause of why your phones is lagging where mine is not and we have more or less same firmware.

Let's see if these problems are persistent also in official M... in the meanwhile, if you are back to Lollipop, can you please send me outcome of these commands (adb shell as root):

cat /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree

and

sysctl -a

Thank you very much.

Can anyone extract the Marshmallow Xperia home apk with arm folder? I just replace default one with new concept launcher. and it doesn't work and gives me a "Unfortunately Xperia home has stopped" error. Then i delete the new home and replace with default one. but it also gives that error. Using nova can't open default phone, messaging apps, also gives that error. then deleted the default home from system, but those apps gives that error again.

Please need help guys..
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
There is nothing in the arm folder except a link. The odexes are now linked to squashfs, so in order to restore launcher, copy apk back to home-release folder and in subfolder home-release/oat/arm make link home-release.odex located in /system/odex.app/arm/home-release.odex

Unless you have deleted the odex.app.sqsh file, the odex file will be linked correctly back.

[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
Do you have WiFi Advanced setting to Keep WiFi while sleep to "Never" or "Only while charging"?
[Xperia Z3 General] wornera:
"Never"
[Xperia Z3 General] :
Do I need to wipe data since I have seen that someone said that they flashed the ROM without wiping data and it worked fine?
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
So you answered your question yourself....
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
So you have answer to your problem. If you have setting "Never" it means that when phone is in sleep, it disconnects and disables WiFi to save power. Of course it takes then time to reconnect after wake-up. If you want immediate connection, set it to "Always".

[Xperia Z3 General] dachau:
LP is indeed very smooth, stable and fast - but there are 2 major advantages that MM will bring:

- app permissions

- external storage merged with internal storage

I just don't get it why it takes so long to bring out an updated stock ROM.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
Just because Sony will make sure it is stable and without bugs.

I have had just now Samsung Galaxy A5 as temporary device while my Z3 was in service. And I am very happy to have my Z3 back. Sony have indeed some bloatware and own UI, but it is very decent and responsive. Nothing, compared to TouchWiz.

As for app permissions and external+internal sd: People long lived without these features until now, so there is nowhere to hurry. More over, there are apps that are not optimized for MM and they tempt to behave strangely on combined storage. And I am really looking forward to see all these complains after disabling some permission renders app unusable or buggy.
